wiki freeze

The 2010 iGEM wiki will FREEZE on October 27 at 11:59pm EDT. Please DO NOT wait until the last minute to add information to your team wiki pages. There will be increased traffic to the iGEM server in the following days.

In 2009, there was a high load placed on the wiki server and teams had difficulties adding information in the last several hours before the deadline. To avoid situations like that, please begin finalizing and uploading the necessary information to your wikis as soon as possible. If your team's information is not on the wiki by 11:59pm EDT on October 27 you WILL NOT be able to add any more information.

iGEM community collaborations

Want to help out your fellow iGEM participants? Take a look at the community collaborations page for iGEM teams. We'll be listing team projects that want to get in touch with iGEM participants in order to survey, receive input, collaborate, or work on other community-based projects. You may find a project where you'd like to lend a hand.

If your team has a project that could use the help of the community, send us an email with a short description and contact info. We'll add your project's details to the list.

wiki hosting

The 2010 iGEM wiki will FREEZE on October 27 at 11:59pm EDT. As a reminder, all team wiki data must be hosted on 2010.igem.org. Team wikis on openwetware, university, or independent websites will not be considered in judging. If you are currently using a separate host for your wiki, please move over all information to your team wiki on 2010.igem.org.

show off your team spirit!

The 2010 Jamboree is coming up, and although you must be busy with preparations, you should also think about your team spirit. At the Jamboree you will be representing your team, university, and country, so why not show off!

Show your team spirit by designing and wearing your team t-shirts. Try something a little bit different and bring along a team mascot. Get creative and colorful!
